It’s nice sometimes to open up the heart a little and let some hurt come in. It proves you’re still alive Picture Quote #1

We come into the world alone. We go away the same. We’re meant to spend the interlude between in closeness or so we tell ourselves. But it’s a long way from the morning to the evening Picture Quote #1

I have never known a cat that couldn’t quiet me down just by walking slowly past my chair Picture Quote #1

The world needs writers. We will always be necessary. There are few professions that can claim that distinction Picture Quote #1

No map to help us find the tranquil flat lands, clearings calm, fields without mean fences. Rolling down the other side of life our compass is the sureness of ourselves. Time may make us rugged, ragged round the edges, but know and understand that love is still the safest place to land Picture Quote #1
